SAN FRANCISCO, April S.--The Produce
Exchange oday publishes reports from
all wheat counties in California, CIV
ing the actual condition OF growing
wheat April lst. 1t summarizes the sit
uation as follows:
The acreage seeded to Simmer fallow
Is considerably below the average, but
this part of the crop generally In good
condition, aud with any rain will make
good crop. The total acreage seeded is
below the amount seeded last year. Late
grain, OF which there is a large amount,
is beginning to suffer from want of moist
ure, and in some sections ID beyond re-
demptiou. notably on the west side OF
the San Joaquin Valley, where the acre
age seeded is not twenty five per cent. OF
last years area. From Modesto south
crops have suffered and are in 8 very crit
ical condition, Merced county making
perhaps the worst showing. Fresno add

can stiIi make fair crop. Showers
will do but little, if any, good.
Parts OF the central. counties, such
- San Joaquin the eastern end OF Stan.
islaus and Sacramento promise well but
rain is needed. The same applies to the
northern and eastern part Of Solano and
FROM there north along the Sacramento
river where there is large amount OF
6anmer fallow and esrly Winter grain.
Even here late grain has suffered and the
balance needs more rain. The plains
vsst Of Sacramento are fair and can
stand . couple Of weeks more OF dry
weather. The outcome in Santa
Clara, San Bsnito, Monterey, aad
San Louis Obspo depends en-
tirely on the weather during the first
ksif Of April. and with good rains will
make fair crop. The southern counties,
with shs exception Of vsnturA, are not
encouraging. The acreage in ell of them
shows more or less Of decrease and
they do NOS promise to cat large figure
IN the yield of wheat this year. On the
other hand they have large acreage in
barisy and with good Spring will turn
. large amount Of this grain. Barley,
on the whole looks better than wheat,
asd the acreage shows An increase from
sast year.
